Once the business started, the rest would be much easier. As soon as the woman bought something and left, people came to ask her questions one after another, especially since it was the first time for everyone to meet a female butcher like Gu Ci. Make the booth lively.But I think the price is a bit high, so I ask more and buy less.

At the end of the hour, when Gu Dashan came back, Gu Ci cut up more than a dozen catties of wild pork and went out.Gu Dashan and his wife were not in a hurry, but Gu Ci was in a hurry for them, "Uncle, auntie, the weather is going to heat up soon, everyone thinks the price is too high, why don't we lower it?"

The rich people in this town usually come out to buy in the morning, and only those dilapidated tenants will come to pick up leaks in the afternoon.

"Sister, it's your first time to sell, so you don't understand the market of this stall." Gu Dashan heard Gu Ci's worry, shook his head quickly, and said to her: "This wild product is no better than those vegetables and fruits, we don't need to sell it." I am eager to sell it when it is fresh and fresh, this wild product depends on the buyer's vision. Besides..."

Gu Dashan paused, unscrewed the kettle and drank a couple of sips of water, before continuing: "I just went to various restaurants and restaurants to ask, and those who want, I also told the price at this price."

Aunt Dashan's eyes lit up immediately when she heard the words, "Then you have settled the deal for the elder sister?"

"It's a good deal, but it's only half a deal." Gu Dashan smiled embarrassedly, "I usually know managers of some small restaurants and restaurants. Wild meat is expensive, and small restaurants think the cost is high. No, although the small restaurant wants to have a special feature, but I dare not ask for more. So, I went all over the restaurants I know, and I only ordered [-] catties for you. "

The half piece of pork that Gu Ci brought out today was a large portion, and the meat weighed about eighty catties.

"Fifty catties is already a lot. If you hadn't helped me make this trip, I don't think I could handle thirty catties."

Gu Ci was quite satisfied, she never thought that the first time she went out to do business would be so smooth, if the rest could not be sold, she would send some to Dr. Li at Jishantang, her little girl's face was so smooth. Those blemishes were particularly stubborn. Dr. Li thought it would be cured after half a year of medicine, but now he is still using it. For the first time in his life, Dr. Li made a mistake, and he was very sorry. The medicine for these two months did not confiscate her money.

"If the weather is colder, you don't have to worry about the wild pork, but it's a pity that the weather won't last long. Hey..." Gu Dashan sighed, and then went to comfort Gu Ci, "We have tasted this wild pork ourselves. It is much more delicious than the usual wild pork. Anyway, you put the rest in the cellar to enjoy the coolness, and you can sell it for a day or two. I will take you to the big restaurant after delivering the pork to those restaurants later. The restaurant asked with a shy face."

"Okay." Gu Ci stopped being polite to him, and quickly cut a catty of lean meat for the woman who came to buy meat, then put down the knife in his hand, and rubbed his hands on the cloth towel.

"Hey, I kill more pigs than you, but my meat-cutting skills are far worse than yours." Gu Dashan just casually glanced at Gu Ci, but seeing the meat she cut out, he was really surprised. Fast and beautiful.Generally, meat sellers have to add some unsightly corners and corners to let buyers recite a few words, but Gu Ci’s method really makes buyers have nothing to criticize, and those corners and corners that cannot be sold I don't know how she cut it out.

In short, it's wonderful.

"Probably practice makes perfect." Gu Ci took off his apron, and wrote lightly: "When I first joined the army, I was an errand in Huotou Camp, and the masters there killed many old, weak, sick and disabled war horses for food."

Gu Dashan and his mother-in-law looked at each other, somewhat feeling that this was Gu Ci's tragic past, and said a few words dryly, and did not continue the topic, "Hey, no wonder I said this craftsmanship is so good. Then let's There is no further delay, I will take you to deliver meat to those restaurants first, and they will be busy by noon."

"That's fine."

When Gu Dashan went to talk before, although everyone said a certain quantity, but when Gu Ci picked up the meat, the stewards of several restaurants knew the goods, and decided to ask for a few more catties, and finally delivered the goods Come down, there are less than twenty catties left.

"Uncle Dashan, I'm not in a hurry for what's left. You go to Auntie's side to look at the stall first, and I'll walk around by myself. I'll come to you again around noon."

Gu Dashan also knew that it would be difficult to sell out the half of his own pork stall, so he bluntly left his words and put it together, and after a few words of advice, he went back to Aunt Dashan alone.

As soon as he left, Gu Ci went straight to Jishantang with the remaining pork.She has been a frequent visitor to Jishantang for the past six months, and the boy at the door recognized her, "Sister, I'm here again today, but I still need to ask a doctor to get medicine?"

"Neither of them." This boy was about the same age as A Bao, and he had a very pleasant temper. Gu Ci usually saw him and liked to say a few words to him, "I'll bring you some food today."

"That can't be done, the master said, you can't take other people's things indiscriminately." The boy looked small, but he spoke in a serious manner, like a little adult, which was very interesting.

"Then you go and ask your master first." Gu Ci couldn't help touching his peach heart, "Sister is waiting here in the lobby."

"Well." The boy led her into the lobby, sweetly asked the young man who was busy inside to help her pour a bowl of water, and then ran inside.

Gu Ci sat on the bench in the lobby and waited. Not long after, Dr. Li came out, and there was a little girl behind him supporting a woman with a big belly. Without thinking too much, he got up and greeted Dr. Li first.

"That kid on Eleven said, are you here to bring us something?" Dr. Li was no different to Gu Ci, and his words were still lukewarm, and he looked at the things in her basket while talking, "What good things are you sending me again?"

"I don't dare to say good things, I just let you try something new." Gu Ci didn't pretend to be serious, and removed the palm leaf covering the basket as he spoke, "Wild boars have been infested in the village recently, I thought about it." Fazi hunted two heads, and I’m going to sell them in the town today, so I’ll send you some along the way.”

"You'll have a heart at that time." Dr. Li glanced at her, then stared at the wild pork, "Is all this much for me?"

Gu Ci: "Anyway, your clinic is big and there are many people, so let everyone try something new, and I'm too lazy to sell it everywhere."

These two big pieces of meat weigh more than a dozen catties at least, and there are about twenty people in Jishantang. If there is more, there is not much to eat, but this wild pork is a rare game, and the rich and the big can do it Accept, but a mud leg like Gu Ci...

Dr. Li stroked his beard, and as if he suddenly remembered something, he turned his head and glanced at the woman with a big belly behind him, "By the way, isn't your brother the manager of the Hongyunlai Restaurant? Go back and ask your brother if you want this wild woman." Pork? When your father was recuperating here last time, Miss Gu ran up and down a lot."

"I said this girl looks familiar." The woman had been sizing up Gu Ci just now, but she remembered it after being reminded by Dr. Li, and hurriedly smiled at Gu Ci: "Last time, I really couldn't do what I wanted , my father is thanks to Gu Meizi for taking care of him."

"I didn't recognize it either." Gu Ci also smiled, and greeted her: "Sister Xia Hua's belly, it looks like she's about to give birth."

This pregnant woman is Aunt Bangen's daughter, Xia Hua.

"Well, Doctor Li said just now that it will look like the middle of next month." Xia Hua looked at the wild pork in her basket, "My mother is really, if I knew you were going to come to this town to sell these things, I should have let you sell them." Somebody brought a letter to my brother."

"Everyone didn't expect it, and I came out in a hurry this morning, Aunt Bangen didn't even know." Gu Ci smiled, and said: "Uncle Dashan brought me a lot to some small restaurants today. , and the rest will be sent to Doctor Li."

"Just cut a couple of catties and give me a taste. This thing is worth a lot." Dr. Li quickly waved his hand, "Now there is a place to sell it, so it's good for you to exchange it for some money."

Xia Hua has often heard her mother talk about Gu Ci as a neighbor, she is also close to Gu Ci from the bottom of her heart, and she is very sympathetic when she knows what happened to her, and then Dr. Li said: "Anyway, it is almost time for dinner, I will go back later, and I will go back later. If you want to pass by my brother's restaurant, you can cut two catties for Dr. Li to taste something new, and take the rest to my brother's restaurant, just in time for us brothers and sisters to treat you to a meal, thank you very much."

"Yes, yes, yes, you just listen to this lady grandson." Dr. Li didn't give Gu Ci a chance to speak, "Don't waste your time, cut up two catties of pork belly for me, and use it to fry dried bamboo shoots to serve with wine, I'm busy gone."

Seeing Dr. Li's impatient face, Gu Ci also knew his temperament, so he didn't want to please him too much. He quickly cut up two catties of high-quality pork belly, and after Xia Hua took the nourishing medicine, he followed behind her Fortune Restaurant.

The Fortune Restaurant is located in the deep part of the food street in the east alley. Gu Ci had brought his two children here before, but he had never been here. This snack street is the same as that of Caiyi Alley. The more money is burned.

Right now, it's not yet the peak time for eating, so the store is a little deserted.

"Sister, you have such a big belly, why are you here?" Xia Hua entered the gate, and a 30-year-old man who was coming down from the second floor rushed up to meet him. When he saw Gu Ci behind her, he paused ,"This is?"

"People said that I was stupid for three years after being pregnant. I thought I was the only one. It turns out that my brother has no memory." Xia Hua smiled, turned around and introduced to the two: "This is the last time our father was sick and came here with mother." The girl from the same village I take care of is the eldest sister Gu from Second Uncle Gu’s family. Eldest sister, this is my brother. We met in a hurry last time, and you can just call him Brother Chunxiao from now on.”

"So it's the elder sister." Gu Chunxiao laughed hurriedly, warmly invited Gu Ci to sit in the room, then turned around and asked the younger brother to bring some melon seeds and refreshments.

"Brother Chunxiao, please don't be polite." Gu Ci was a little embarrassed, "I came here with Sister Xia Hua this time, and I also came here on business."

Seeing that Gu Ci was embarrassed, Xia Hua hurriedly explained to her, "It's like this, the elder sister said that there are wild boars in the village recently, she got two of them, and there are still many unsold, I asked her to send them to you .”

"Wild boar? But it's true?" Gu Chunxiao was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Gu Ci's basket. His restaurant didn't have any seasonal dishes recently, and the regular customers were a little bit tasteless, so he was worried. "Let me see."

Gu Ci hurriedly put down the basket and showed him the meat, "These are all wild boars that ran down from the deep mountains, and they have tusks. The meat tastes more tender than domestic pigs, and it has more strength. It's good for making boiled pork slices."

Gu Chunxiao squeezed the meat, then looked at Gu Ci again, "I didn't expect my sister to wait for these cooks."

Gu Ci smiled and didn't explain much.

"How do you sell wild boar meat? I want all these."

Gu Ci glanced at him, "Before, lean meat was sold for 25 yuan a catty, pork belly was [-] yuan, and pork ribs was [-] yuan. Now there are only the last ones left, and they will be given to you at [-] yuan."

Gu Chunxiao glanced at her, raised his eyebrows, "Is there still a little?"

Gu Ci was not shy either, "Brother Chunxiao is also a businessman, so he naturally knows that this businessman is the most honest. I sold it for sixty catties at that price today. If it comes to you, if it breaks at this price, you will want to buy it in the future It’s going to be hard to sell anything.”

Gu Chunxiao had a half-smile, "My sister is right, so I'll do as you please."

As he said that, he asked Xiaoer to bring something to pack. After Gu Ci weighed the meat, there was still seventeen catties and six cents left, so he took the initiative to wipe the change and gave it to him at seventeen catties.

Gu Chunxiao was not too polite, and calculated the money at seventeen catties, "Sister, you and eldest sister are sitting here drinking tea. If you want to order food, ask the second one. I will go to work first."

Before leaving, he looked at Gu Ci again, "From now on, big sister will come to me for any game. Don't rush to leave later, I haven't been home to see my parents for a long time, I just asked you to bring some food back .”

Gu Ci: "You don't need to eat. I came here with Uncle Dashan and the others. I went to find them after I had a cup of tea. As for the things you asked me to bring, I will come here again when I want to go back."

Gu Chunxiao and Xia Hua politely kept their meals, but seeing Gu Ci's firm attitude, they didn't force him anymore. Gu Ci left after having tea with Xia Hua.

After Gu Ci left the snack street, he went to the West Alley again. He bought two pieces of high-quality fabric for the little girl's bellyband in Caiyi Alley. The little girl bought two pearls that fell in her hair, and then went to buy paper and ink for Po.

When he arrived at the stall in the East Alley, Gu Dashan was packing up his things, and there was only one pig's trotter left on the wooden board, and it seemed that he was not going to sell it.

"Hey, you came just in time. I thought I'd have to wait for you for a while." Aunt Dashan looked at her empty meat basket, "Is the rest sold out?"

"Well, I happened to meet Miss Xia Hua from Aunt Bangen's house, and she took me to take me to her brother's Fortune Restaurant."

"Look at my brain, I actually forgot about this." Gu Dashan's brain slapped, "I don't have a deep relationship with the villagers, and I forgot that you made friends with Bangen and the others. It's okay to hit by mistake, and the rest You don't have to worry anymore."

Gu Ci nodded, and the three of them walked out while talking, Gu Dashan and the others were coming to the town to sell peanuts soon, and they had nothing to buy, so they walked all the way out, when they passed the snack street, Gu Ci asked them to wait, and went again It contained the things that the Gu Chunxiao brothers and sisters asked her to bring back to their parents.

When we returned to the village, it was still early in the morning, and as soon as Gu Ci went up the slope, he heard the fierce voice of his little girl coming from inside.

"Look at the three of you, you're all splashed with mud, and your cheeks are red from the sun. When you went out, what did I tell you... Oh, you are really annoying..."

Gu Ci sounded quite familiar with the swearing tone in front of him. After a little thought, he realized that it was his usual scolding tone. Hold back and smile.
